Ship Efficiency Conference 2009 on 28-29 September in Hamburg

In an industry characterised by increasingly keen global competition, the key to survival is designing, building and operating ships efficiently.

That is why the German Society for Maritime Technology (Schiffbautechnische Gesellschaft) has launched the Ship Efficiency Conference to look for answers to questions concerning improvements in the efficiency of shipping operations and thereby increasing a ship's profitability, considering environmental as well as legislative aspects.

This event is sponsored by Germanischer Lloyd. It takes place every two years in Hamburg, alternating with the trade exhibition SMM, and is being held for the second time on 28-29 September this year.
